Much like the Misty Palm Oasis, Ba Sing Se changed a lot, and the main image should reflect those changes. The image is already is even already used within the article. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 15:06, October 2, 2014 (UTC)
- Approved for discussion.
- While I absolutely agree that the image needs to be showcased to depict the changes to the city, I do not find it good enough to be an infobox image. The glaring sun in the background is distracting and it prevents you from truly noticing the other ring that is clear in the current image. As such, I still prefer the current over the modern city. Lady Lostris /
SOAP 15:16, October 2, 2014 (UTC)
Support PR 1. I agree with Omnibender. The glare of the sun is minimal, and the far wall is still visible. The changes are very noticeable, with the rail no longer sticking way above the roofs of all the houses. It just has the busier, more chaotic feel that it had in LoK vs TLA.

I've added three other proposals that show the more modernized look of the city, though I still feel that proposal one is the best, as it showcases both the urban growth and the size of the city, which isn't apparent in the other images, which show at most a few buildings. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 15:43, October 3, 2014 (UTC)
- I still disagree with the additional proposals... none of them really depict the spralling metropolis that BSS is. Intelligence4 (wall • contribs) 17:35, October 3, 2014 (UTC)
I support proposal 1. The left half of the image is the same exact scene depicted in the current image and it shows just how much things have changed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mts606 (wall • contribs) 15:28, October 6, 2014 (UTC)

The current isn't really the best image for a profile. The focus should be on Bolin without any distractions, however with Pabu in the way, this becomes impossible. The proposed has a better angle and expression Frui (🌹 • 🐝 • 🐝🐝) 03:23, October 4, 2014 (UTC)
- Approved for discussion. PSUAvatar14 Want to have a word? 05:51, October 4, 2014 (UTC)
- I oppose. There is nothing wrong with the current, especially not considering how prominent Pabu usually is when Bolin is around. Also, we should hold off with picturing Bolin in the uniform of Kuvira's army because we don't know if he'll remain a soldier. Making it the infobox image is making a premature claim that the "soldier boy" is his most recognizable form. Lady Lostris / SOAP 07:42, October 4, 2014 (UTC)
- I oppose as well. I agree with Lady Lostris that Pabu is a very prominent part of Bolin's life, and can be a prominent part of the picture as well. I also think the new hairstyle isn't very visible, and to me, that would be one of the primary reasons to change it. Lastly, I think the 2:2.5 aspect ratio is very weird. Why do it when it's not impossible to cut one in a "standard" 4:3 ratio? AvatarAang7 13:34, October 4, 2014 (UTC)
I support the proposal. We've seen Bolin wearing that outfit well into later episodes during the trailer and the inclusion of Pabu isn't as important as keeping an up to date photo of his new appearance. --Mandon (wall • contribs) 16:34, October 4, 2014 (UTC)
- And what source has told you that Bolin is wearing that outfit "well into later episodes"? Because I was not aware that the trailer revealed from which episodes it has taken shots, so if you know from which episodes those shots come, please share the knowledge. If you don't have such a source, claiming that the trailer uses shots from "well into later episodes" is pure speculation. Besides, for all we know he just keeps on the uniform due to lack of other clothing while opposing Kuvira, which would thus make it ridiculous to make the uniform part of his defining infobox image if he doesn't identify with it. So to reiterate my previous statement: it's way too early to claim that Bolin is now definitely know as the "soldier boy". Making such a claim is premature.

Pretty straightforward. Lefty has grown up, it is a good shot with good lighting, no significant action and a calm background. It's very similar to Appa's infobox picture, which has Aang and Sokka on it, this one has Kai and Opal. AvatarAang7 20:12, October 5, 2014 (UTC)
- Approved for discussion. PSUAvatar14 Want to have a word? 02:31, October 6, 2014 (UTC)
I support the proposed image, as it provides a more profile-worthy view and is similar to Appa's profile image in its perspective. shock (talk) 07:00, October 6, 2014 (UTC)

Current image is from a very specialized, non-standard train. Proposal showcases a more standard looking, and more modern train. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 18:27, October 5, 2014 (UTC)

Both images are already on the page, but I suggest we switch their places. The proposed shows the true meaning of "wingsuit" as it depicts Kai and Opal in full flight, revealing the wings of the suit as well as a good shot of the rest of the outfit. The current image does a good job depicting how the suits look when closed, but I think that shouldn't be the primary image of these suits. Lady Lostris / SOAP 10:48, October 6, 2014 (UTC)

The proposed is the New York Comic Con 2014 - Legend of Korra poster which does a better job as the book's profile image than the current in my opinion. Lady Lostris / SOAP 18:34, October 9, 2014 (UTC)

- I agree. The other picture should still be on the page, though, but just not as the profile picture. The other poster picture works a lot better than the other one as a profile picture. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SorcererSupreme21 (wall • contribs) 03:06, October 10, 2014 (UTC)

<gallery hideaddbutton="true"> File:Air Nomad caves.png|Current image File:Air Nomad caves proposal.png|Proposed replacement #1 </gallery>
This is more a "let's throw the option out there"-proposal. There is nothing really wrong with the current, except for the presence of the two flying bison which has always been a distracting factor for me. The proposed doesn't have any such distractions, though it is a further off shot. The downsides of that are that you don't have such details from the statues, though you do get a better visual of the surroundings of where the caves are situated.

The current image isn't ideal for a few reasons. Firstly the image doesn't show a lot of Tonraq, most profile images cover the top of the head to at least the chest. Secondly, the current image cuts off the top of Tonraq's head, and doesn't show much of his clothes. The first image may not be ideal seeing as it is taken in a nighttime setting, and so I've also added in the second proposal, which has a daytime setting, and also shows more of Tonraq's body with more of a neutral expression on his face. Obviously any other image suggestions are welcome. Thoughts? Rassilon of Old (Wall - Help) 04:56, October 13, 2014 (UTC)
I agree with you that the current isn't the best, but I think neither one of the proposals is better. Like you said, the first proposal is a bit dark, and we have been discussing the same issue with Kuvira's profile picture for three weeks, while these discussions usually wrap up in a few days. The second one may be better, but it's blurry, seeing how he is in the background during that shot. Plus, it doesn't show how he has aged in Book 4, which would seen like the main reasson to change it. I say we wait for a daytime shot, I'm sure it will here soon. AvatarAang7 08:26, October 13, 2014 (UTC)
- The second proposal is completely inappropriate as a profile image, and the third just looks weird; none of his features are defined. I have no problems with the current image. Frui (🌹 • 🐝 • 🐝🐝) 08:29, October 13, 2014 (UTC)
- I oppose. The current image, while it's only downside is that it cuts off part of Tonraq's head, has both proposals beat is personality representation, lighting, quality, and posture, all things that are beneficial for an infobox image. The first proposal is too dark and Tonraq generally doesn't sport a goofy smile, and the second proposal is of low quality and also depicts Tonraq with an uncharacteristic facial expression.

First of all: Those who have not yet played the game but want to, don't read the rest of my reasoning, as it contains a major spoiler. Now to the image. The current one is of poor quality, dark, vague and with poor facial expression. The proposal, however, is rather well lit, centered, not too far off and shows the typical calm, yet utterly evil Hundun (with the characteristic smile). The only downside of the proposal, imo, is that it does not show Hundun's brother. However, all scenes that contain the latter show Hundun is total rage, which does not fit his "everyday" personality (at least from what we saw most of the time).

- Approved for discussion. PSUAvatar14 Want to have a word? 01:02, October 22, 2014 (UTC)
I support the proposal due to better lighting and it is centered. Also, in the current, I keep mistaking the red markings on his hat for the red lotus symbol. I like that the proposal highlights the red markings as to differentiate them from the red lotus symbol. ShadowZaHedge Korrasami is endgame
01:13, October 22, 2014 (UTC)
I disagree, the article is about Hundun and his conjoined brother, so the infobox picture should show both of them unless we split the article in two, but as they are always together that make no sense. It's like an infobox picture of Lu without Gang or a picture of Wei without Wing, it's make no sense. I updated a picture of them together earlier, but an admin deleted it because it was of poor quality, if someone want to upload an HD quality picture of the two as a second proposal, I will support it.Maxattac (wall • contribs) 01:53, October 22, 2014 (UTC)
I added the proposal I was talking about yesterday. It's not ideal, but at least we can see both of them. Maxattac (wall • contribs) 22:19, October 23, 2014 (UTC)
- I might add one more point in favor of proposal 1. As said during the game, Hundun's brother never fully healed, and his actions during the game were pretty much completely controlled by his brother. In that way, Hundun represented both of them.

The current doesn't meet most of the specs, it's the wrong ratio, and it's just an all around pretty awkward shot. The proposed replacement is, in my opinion, more profile worthy.

This is another one of those ... "eh, let's let the majority decide." The current is becoming unsuitable due to being vastly outdated: it shows Jinora as a child without her tattoos and her old hairdo and attire. The proposal on the other hand fixes all that, though has the big downside that she is not looking at the camera but somewhere in the distance, which could be seen as distracting.

- While I agree that the profile image should be updated, I really don't like the proposal. Besides Lady Lostris' note that she is not looking in the camera, I also think that her facial expression is too neutral, unlike the optimistic yet calm Jinora we know.

The proposal is one of those "maybe" shots. It definitely needs to be on the page, though the question is "as it's infobox image or not". The benefits of the current are that it clearly shows the symbol the army is fighting under and its leader as well as some soldiers. However, the focus is on the leader and the symbol. In proposal #1, we see the true size of the army and the different machinery it consists off. It is clearly a picture of an army, though it lacks a true focus on the symbol. Proposal #2 does a good job focusing on tanks and the symbol, though it excludes infantry and air force. At this point, I would be inclined to support #2 as the infobox image, place the current in the history, and proposal #1 somewhere on the page detailing about the force of the army. Lady Lostris / SOAP 09:35, October 25, 2014 (UTC)
- Approved for discussion. I actually prefer proposal #1 for the simple reason that it is an army, and such a shot that it shows the sheer magnitude of said army. That being said, I'm not adverse to the current, nor the other proposal. Frui (🌹 • 🐝 • 🐝🐝) 09:51, October 25, 2014 (UTC)

- I think that the first proposal should be the new replacement as it shows the size of the army Kuvira has while the current photo just shows her conquering Yi which isn't really important. Tono555wall-my contributions 13:31, October 25, 2014 (UTC)

- I support with the first proposal because it shows Kuvira's all round army. Firetornado (wall)
- I'd have to go with Proposal 1, but I'm not against keeping the current. P1 shows off a lot more of the army than the current and P2, but then again, the current shows Kuvira with her army concurring a territory. At the very least, the current should be on the page regardless if it's the profile image or not. Soren7550 (wall • contribs) 23:08, October 25, 2014 (UTC)

Simply put, I believe that the current, more modern mecha tank should be the one used in the main image. Both images show the Earth Empire mecha tanks. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:55, October 31, 2014 (UTC)
- Approved for discussion. Lady Lostris / SOAP 21:58, October 31, 2014 (UTC)
- Actually, I believe that these are not even mecha tanks. They are only called "mechas" in the show, not "mecha tanks", and are technically extremely different from the old mecha tanks. So I oppose the proposal. DyingFlameTsui (wall • contribs) 22:03, October 31, 2014 (UTC)
- It should get its own page titled Earth Empire Mechs.KevinTriforce Talk 05:49, November 2, 2014 (UTC)
- Considering that the tanks clearly are the modernized version of Hiroshi's models, they should not get their own page. This wiki does not create pages because we can. We have always tried to group relevant pages together, which in this case means no separate page for those tanks. As for the image, I support changing it to the more modernized tank. Proposal #2 has my preference as it shows both a frontal and a side view of the tanks as well as highlights its mobility and new features. Lady Lostris / SOAP 10:05, November 2, 2014 (UTC)
- Then we should also rename the page to "Mechas", as the new versions lack all tank features. As of now, the proposals would not correctly represent an article named "Mecha tank", as they don't show mecha tanks. DyingFlameTsui (wall • contribs) 11:32, November 2, 2014 (UTC)

The renaming of the page is a discussion to be held in the War Room, this discussion is solely about the profile picture. I support Proposal #2, given that it is both an awesome shot, but more importantly, it shows off all the main features of the tank. Most of the tank is on display, and being an action shot, it has the benefit of giving both a front and a side view of the tank. AvatarAang7 18:36, November 2, 2014 (UTC)
- I support proposal 2 per Lady Lostris and AvatarAang7's reasons. Can we keep the current profile somewhere on the page though? The older models were used by Hiroshi, Asami, and Hundun's forces, therefore, I think it's important that we keep the old profile somewhere as it showcases the older mecha tanks.

I feel the proposed displays his personality much better than the current image as well as having more detail. The current also shows him with an awkward expression that lacks focus. In the proposed it's very clear that he's looking at a person and having a conversation, while in the current he could be looking at anything, or nothing. The second proposal is with a less angry expression Thoughts? --Mandon (wall • contribs) 19:08, October 31, 2014 (UTC)
- Approved for discussion.
- I oppose. The current image does not display him with awkwardly. To offered reason to say that it is, is that it is "clear that he's looking at a person and having a conversation", though that is as evident in the current as it is in either proposal, so that makes it moot as a reason. The only thing that the proposals have over the current is the quality, though the fact that they display him either angry -which he only is when facing his family, thus it is a bad representation of his overall personality- or semi-surprised -which he also is not overall, also making it a bad representation of his overall personality- are more distracting to me than the lesser quality of the current. The proposals are also rather close up, cutting the top of his head off while making him very "in your face". The fact that the current shows him in a good lighting with an expression that he sports most of the time make up for the minor quality in comparison with the downsides of the proposed.

While the current image depicts a very powerful act of lavabending, it does so in the background of the image. The proposal showcases lavabending as the foreground of the image, and the lava is much more detailed. The proposal also shows a native earthbender doing the lavabending instead of someone from another nation. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 17:40, October 31, 2014 (UTC)
Disagreed. While Omnibender makes a few good points, the thing I think is wrong with this picture is that it is very blurry, especially the lava in the foreground, which is the problem we are trying to fix. I say we keep the current image. AvatarAang7 18:33, October 31, 2014 (UTC)

Lighting, angle, detail. I'll admit my last proposal was pretty bad in hindsight but I think this image is an all around improvement to the original in every way. The lighting is just as good, it showcases his personality just as well, and the angle is all around better. Thoughts? Mandon (wall • contribs) 20:06, November 7, 2014 (UTC)

- I oppose. I think that the current image has the perfect lighting and angle, and in my opinion it also fits his personality better than the proposal. DyingFlameTsui (wall • contribs) 13:48, November 8, 2014 (UTC)
The proposed depicts his normal personality just fine. It's just a normal expression, and it's not occurring in any situation where he's angry or "sour". It doesn't show him looking down either nor is it upscaled and stretched from cropping, which is a major plus. --Mandon (wall • contribs) 20:10, November 8, 2014 (UTC)
- It's not a normal expression considering he's bordering sulking with his lip so downcast. And as noted last time: Baatar Jr. is only depicted to look sour and/or angry when he is in the vicinity of this family. All other times, he's either neutral or bordering smug, which makes this sulky expression not a normal one. Just a general remark though, the current image is only cropped. That's the only image editing that went on there, and it is without a doubt that the proposal is of better quality, though that does not mean that the current is of bad quality.

I don't have any issues with the current, but I added another proposal that has Baatar Jr. facing the camera with a more neutral expression, just to throw another option into the mix. —Random Ranaun (Talk to me!) 21:59, November 8, 2014 (UTC)
- Still current for me, as I wouldn't call that a neutral expression. Not really sure what I'd aptly call it beyond, "funny-looking" ^^". Lady Lostris / SOAP 23:03, November 8, 2014 (UTC)
Second proposal makes him look sad. But as far as what you said LL, I should point out that Jr wasn't in the vicinity of his family in the proposed. He was talking to Bolin and Varrick and wasn't under any kind of emotional stress that would make him look agitated, angry or sour. So as far as his mouth looking like he's frowning goes.. that's coincidental. The current image doesn't depict his natural personality either. Ideally we'd want an image that conveys his smugness more, since that's his most prominant personality trait, but neither image does that. The current image is just him looking normal without conveying any of his trademark emotions, while the proposed also shows him looking normal but with a little more of his overall harshness. Ultimately I think quality should > minor issues with conveying a personality accurately. Just take the Kuvira image poll we had a few weeks ago. --Mandon (wall • contribs) 05:08, November 9, 2014 (UTC)
- You're right, it wasn't taken when in the vicinity of his family. You're wrong, however, to claim that he wasn't agitated as the shot was taken when he was opposing Varrick and Bolin, tho people who refuse to see his ideology and love for Kuvira just like his family doesn't see his vision the same way. So in a way, they're the same to him. And coincidental or not, it still looks like he's frowning. The current image, while I acknowledge that its not perfect, still depicts his natural personality better than either proposed, so that's a plus for that image. You are exaggerating the bad quality of the current image as well as minimizing the issues in personality portrayal. Also, the Kuvira poll is irrelevant to this, so it's moot to bring that up. Lady Lostris / SOAP 13:30, November 9, 2014 (UTC)
- I think this third proposal would be a better profile image for Baatar Jr. because it shows more of his face. He is in a metal environment, in his uniform, which clearly shows that he works for the Earth Empire Military. He is also showing a rather angrier face, rather than a smiley one in the current image, which reflects his personality. Firetornado3006 (wall • contribs) 04:55, November 10, 2014 (UTC)

Apart from the current image being extremely outdated (she hasn't been seen wearing her Water Tribe outfit in nearly two Books), the proposal depicts Zhu Li in greater focus, looking toward the camera as well having less shadows obscuring her face.

The current image does not follow the standard of most episode titles spotlighting specific characters having an image of that character, e.g. The Fortuneteller, The Earth King, The Puppetmaster, etc. While the current image is high quality and a main setting for the episode, it does not accurately portray the actual title and feature of the episode.

Current image is way too up close to the metal, and you can't see who is the metalbender. Proposal shows a simple case of metalbending in which the metalbender is clearly visible. The metalbending itself is also clearer. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:31, November 14, 2014 (UTC)
- Approved for discussion. I disagree. I don't find anything particularly bad about the current image save for the fact that the whole bender isn't actually visible, but I don't think that's necessarily vital when portraying the bending itself. You see the hand of an individual literally bending metal, and bending metal crudely as it is often depicted. Water Spout 21:55, November 14, 2014 (UTC)

Current image, while depicting a master, the healer is mostly out of frame, because it's only a demonstration of the redirection of chi on a puppet, there's no actual healing taking place, and there's no actual water in the image. In the proposal, you can clearly see the healer, the one being healed, and the glowing water. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:31, November 14, 2014 (UTC)
- Approved for discussion. I disagree. Per my reasoning on the metalbending proposal, I don't see the need to put importance on the visibility of the bender when the page is about the bending. If an image captures the art, then I find it appropriate. The current does a great job of showing the mechanics of healing and I don't think it needs to be changed. Water Spout 21:55, November 14, 2014 (UTC)
- I disagree. While there is no contesting that the healing is not visible, the healing itself most definitely is. The current image clearly shows the chi patters that are used when healing, as well as the glowing water. Losing that clear representation just to feature a bender is not something I can support.

- Per WS's opposition. Hiroshi was shown as the reformed Equalist for one episode for a few minutes.

I feel we should change the picture for airbending. It doesn't accurately potray it, is low-quality, and doesn't represent the subject as well as it should. It does not show the face of the person bending, and it is in fact not actually bending. It is Aang inhaling. I think the picture should reflect the actual bending art.

- I oppose because, well, your reasons are really weird, sorry. The current is of high quality, the face of the bender does not need to be shown. Instead, the majority of the bender should be shown as to differentiate someone bending something from a fireball just flying around or something. Lastly, Aang is totally bending the air. An airbender inhaling air to airbend is no different than when a waterbender or firebender exhale to bend; they're still bending. Aang bent the air into his airways and then exhaled with such pressure that he quickly cooled the lava as it was about to destroy Aunt Wu's village. I see nothing wrong with the current anyways.

- Yeah, I don't feel I was clear. I mean the new pictures are a bit more modern, and more importantly, the air in the image is from him breathing in, not from his arms. While still technically airbending, him breathing in does not accurately portray what airbending as a whole is about, and I feel #2 portrays it just as good if not better, while also being more recent and applicable. User:DarksideDCM 03:03, November 27, 2014 (UTC)
Support Proposal #1. While I don't agree with Darkside's reasoning, I will admit that I never liked the current picture. To me, it's a generally awkward angle, a bit dark, and it doesn't really display the free nature of airbending. I think PR #1 does that much better. Tenzin is standing only on the toes of one foot, and still unleashing a powerful blast.

Simple explanation: the current image is horrible and it was only used since there was no other image available at that time. Either of the proposed will do better. My preference is #1 since she actually glances at the camera, though for those who find her hands to be too distracting, I've added a second proposal (though personally, I find her looking away toward the distance more distracting than the hands). I'd like to pass this along under the twenty-four-hour rule. Lady Lostris / SOAP 10:43, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
- Approved for discussion, and yes, I would prefer this change to go through within a day. My pick is for the second proposal as I do find the hands somewhat distracting, but I would not object to the first; both are far better than the current. PSUAvatar14 Want to have a word? 11:01, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
- Yes the curernt is horrible, but plenty of my proposals have been shot down on awkwardly glancing to the side like PR 1, even if it's into the camera. If that was a major problem we need to redo the picture of almost everyone. Support PR 2. AvatarAang7 11:11, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
- There is a difference between "glancing to the side" and "glancing awkwardly to the side". The big difference between previous proposals that have been shot down for that reason and this one is that here she is not glancing to the side, but actually glancing to look straight at the camera, as opposed to having a shot that features the character facing the camera though looking away -which makes it award. That obviously isn't the case here. Lady Lostris / SOAP 11:25, November 28, 2014 (UTC)

I've been on the lookout for a good new profile picture of Korra wih the short hair and I finnaly think I found one. It's a far off as I could get it, but I still think it's a good replacement, displaying her personality, and of course, the new hairstyle. AvatarAang7 11:14, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
- Approved for discussion.
- I don't agree with the change. While I definitely agree that Korra's profile picture should be updated to one of her new hairdo, her facial expression just strikes me as even borderline creepy in this one. Her expression is devoid from emotion, which makes her look like a doll. I also find it aesthetically displeasing that it is sucha close crop of her face, nearly cutting off the top of her hair. Perhaps some may say that the current is also devoid of emotion, though there it doesn't bother since the image isn't so "in your face" like the proposal is. Lady Lostris / SOAP 11:25, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
- I see your point, but keep in mind that the picture in that box isn't cropped properly. It just wouldn't cut off the top of her head, I couldn't fix that issue on this page. This is what it actually would look like: http://postimg.org/image/ak82dtb5x/ . Now the expression is personal taste, I think it's fine. AvatarAang7 12:00, November 28, 2014 (UTC)

Support per reasons stated. The image looks fine.. at least for a temporary change until a better one surfaces. --Mandon (wall • contribs) 17:22, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
Added a second proposal with a more normal expression, albeit a little serious, and no upscaling. It could be better in terms of lighting, and expression but I think it's a bit of an improvement over proposal 1 and worth considering. --Mandon (wall • contribs) 17:59, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
- I removed the second proposal since it was of such a bad quality that it wouldn't even have been approved if it had been the initial proposal. (that said, it also didn't showcase Korra as neutral, it displayed her in bad lighting as an apathetic someone.) Lady Lostris / SOAP 19:36, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
I oppose the proposal since it doesn't seem to have the same level of quality as the current. Though I do support changing Korra's infobox image to reflect her new hairstyle in theory.♦ Lord Hyōga ♦ ♦ Tree of Ages ♦ 20:25, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
Still not a fan of the image and prefer we don't change for now, though since so many people seem to want it, I propose we at least take #2 if consensus is in favor of a change. In contrast to #1, that shot is a cleaner crop that still leaves some more room at the top of her head, which is more aesthetically pleasing. It also depicts Korra with a hint of her smugness as opposed to the bland face of #1, which makes for a better character depiction, which is what the infobox images are all about after all. Lady Lostris / SOAP 21:33, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
I support proposal #2 per Lostris' reasons. 
AvatarKya
- I oppose, mainly on the grounds of that I don't fully agree with the whole 'make the infobox image that of the character's most recent appearance' thing. Korra's look has included the ponytails for over three seasons, and having the infobox's image of her show a look she hasn't donned for very long seems a bit silly. Heck, several pages here don't follow this ruling as their characters are more easily identified by their appearance they held for some time prior to their change in/last appearance (such as Amon and Yakone).
- But, if I had to choose, I guess I'd have to pick the first proposal. Soren7550 (wall • contribs) 20:55, November 30, 2014 (UTC)

I change my vote to oppose the proposal. There's really no point updating it now since the series will be over by next week and we'll probably have a suitable profile picture ready by then. --Mandon (wall • contribs) 00:17, December 8, 2014 (UTC)
I oppose, although i like the picture itself, i think we should wait untill the finale before we change all of the character photos as new and good ones will show up more then likley in the two weeks when we see the finale.--Gsmith1030 02:48, December 9, 2014 (UTC)

There is nothing really wrong with the current, though I just thought I'd offer the proposal as an option. It's a shot with the same expression, though slightly further off, thus showing his URN insignia badge, as well as doing away with the shadow on his face. Lady Lostris / SOAP 16:24, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
- Approved for discussion. I was never a big fan of the shadowy look in the current, so I'll take the proposal. PSUAvatar14 Want to have a word? 16:31, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
- You don't like the current picture because the lighting is inconsistent, not because it's shadowy. The proposal is even fully in shade. I oppose because in the new one, Raiko looks angrily and I don't think the additional wrinkles have something to do with him having aged during the three years.

Here's my reasoning. While the current image definitely works to partially convey an aspect of what the Avatar used to be, it doesn't really apply now as Korra has lost access to her past lives. More importantly, I don't think an image showing all the past Avatars in the Avatar State represents what the Avatar truly is, which is the embodiment of light and peace, and most importantly, the fusion of a human with Raava. --Mandon (wall • contribs) 17:40, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
- Approved for discussion. PSUAvatar14 Want to have a word? 17:44, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
- While there is something to be said about the given reasoning, I don't see a need for change, because the current image depicts the Avatars in the Avatar States, which is their connection with Raava and it also has the added benefit of showcasing that other very important part of the Avatar, which is the Avatar Cycle. My support stays with the current. Lady Lostris / SOAP 17:56, November 28, 2014 (UTC)

I definitely understand the benefit of showcasing the Avatar cycle, but yet that's still one aspect of the Avatar, just like their ability to bend all four elements. Plus there's the added fact that my proposal actually shows Raava herself lighting up inside the Avatar, and given the fact that she makes up half of the Avatar spirit, I feel it's important to showcase her in the image. --Mandon (wall • contribs) 18:05, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
I agree with Mandon. The three defining features of the Avatar are: the Cycle, the connection with Raava and bending all four elements. Following that theory, I'd say we do Aang in the Elemental sphere during his fight against Ozai, but that doesn't really feel like a profile picture to me. I like that the proposal shows off the connection to Raava much better than the current, and that it's more in tune with the time, given that Korra restarted the cycle. Support Proposal 1. AvatarAang7 19:03, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
I support PR1 for AA7's reasons. The Halter of Wind 13:19, November 28, 2014
- We seem to be forgetting that the most common way the connection with Raava is displayed by the glow of the Avatar's eyes, not by the spirit lighting up inside them as the proposal shows. It highlights an uncharacteristic appearance of Raava when it comes to being the Avatar and as such should not be displayed as its primary image. It's a worthy image to be displayed in the body of the text -where there already is such a similar image displayed, though it's uncharacteristic appearance should not define what the Avatar is. Lady Lostris / SOAP 19:36, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
Raava + Wan and his following lifetimes is in short what the Avatar is. The point is to depict as such in the image, not showcase how the Avatar commonly looks when channeling Raava. I still think the depiction of Raava overlapping the Avatar better represents exactly what the Avatar truly is.. which is a fusion of the two. And in spite of the Avatar State being the channeling of Raava's light spirit, it still doesn't show Raava herself, which I feel is important. --Mandon (wall • contribs) 20:09, November 28, 2014 (UTC)

Post timeskip and better angle. (without him looking off to the side) Only issue I have and I'm sure others will have is the lighting, but it's not too bad in my opinion. --Mandon (wall • contribs) 18:40, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
- Approved for discussion. I don't agree with the proposal, I think the lighting of it is far more concerning than a slight look to the side. PSUAvatar14 Want to have a word? 18:58, November 28, 2014 (UTC)
- I oppose the change. The proposal is unsuited due to its sad expression, which does not capture Mako's overall personality at all, and its bad lighting. The better angle argument is without subject, since it has the same angle as the current, so the only plus point this image has is that it is post-time skip, though all the negatives it has, vastly outweigh that one positive note.

Frontal, displays her personality extremely well and in my opinion makes her look far more intimidating as well with the angle it's at.

I think the current is perfectly fine and disagree with the change. DyingFlameTsui (wall • contribs) 22:14, December 12, 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose. The quality is frankly horrible. It's absolutely not comparable with the current, which is a resized HD image of a 1900x1080 shot, whereas the current is a seemingly blurry shot. Furthermore, it's in worse lighting that adds an unappealing shadow to her face, at an awkward angle, and does nothing to improve her "intimidation level". In my opinion, it has nothing on the current. Lady Lostris / SOAP 00:00, December 13, 2014 (UTC)
It's upscaled to enlarge it for the proposal template. If you click on the image, you can see it's true quality. It isn't at all blurry. As for the lighting.. I'll concede on that. Angle? How is it awkward? It's a frontal view. Overall it shows her personality just as well as the current, but it's at a better angle. --Mandon (wall • contribs) 06:16, December 13, 2014 (UTC)
- Regardless of its "true quality", upscaling still retracts from the visual aesthetics of the image when it appears in standard infobox dimensions, which completely takes away from the whole reason we use profile images in the first place. Not all frontal shots are ideal for an infobox image. Despite the fact that Kuvira is facing frontward, the shot depicts her bottom-up instead of head on. As a result, you have terrible shadows accentuated- further worsened by the horrible lighting- and a bulky partial chest that looks terribly awkward. Strong opposed. The current is fine.

- I oppose changing the current. The first proposal is at an awkward angle, as many others have stated. The second proposal looks awful with those lines under Kuvira's eyes.

- The second proposal is just as bad. The crop places her off-center which completely overturns the fact that she is no longer presented from a top-down angle, since that is just as bad. Her expression is sour and renders the image inappropriate for a profile image regardless, and even if we were to consider it despite that, it would be a gross misrepresentation of Kuvira, since her calm and collected demeanor has been a definitive character trait for the entire book.

Simple reasoning: better lighting, thus nicer colors that reflect her true complexion and hair/eye color, and it's a cleaner shot with less distractions.

The current image, while keeping excellent focus on the cannon, no longer represents the weapon as a whole, considering how it is now attached to an enormous mecha suit. As such, I propose to change the image to the proposal. It's of excellent quality and lighting and keeps a central focus on the cannon while also (partially) displaying the mecha suit. The current image should, in my opinion, be moved to the "design" section, while the image there should be moved to the history section and take the place of the proposal that will (if this proposal succeeds) be moved up to the top.

Let's try this one more time. I know last time I proposed a post timeskip Hiroshi image it was shot down with the arguments that it conflicted with what Hiroshi was established as in seasons prior and that we weren't sure if his change of heart was genuine, but all that's changed now. In his last moments, Hiroshi was no longer the vengeance obsessed loonatic, but a guilt-ridden old man and a loving father wanting nothing more than to redeem himself. I think it's important to display his change of character, not to mention keep his appearance up to date. Not to mention the benefits of better lighting/angle. --Mandon (wall • contribs) 16:18, December 19, 2014 (UTC)
- Approved for discussion.
- I removed the second proposal since it was unsuitable as an infobox image due to its extreme close up. In regards to the first proposal, I don't agree to make it his infobox image. His last moments didn't change anything about his most defining character traits. Five minutes of remorse do not overthrow an entire season in regards to a defining trait.

- Support proposal per reasoning given above. AvatarfanSLO (wall) 17:32, December 19, 2014 (UTC
- I agree with Mandon and SLO. Ture, Lostris has a good point by saying that he only had a few brief moments of redemption, but she's making it sound like he was the mastermind of Book 1 instead of Amon. And let's not forget, he never wanted to turn against Asami, but but he only wanted to revolt against benders. And since his regret of betraying Asami is consistent throughout both seasons in which he appears, I think that is a good reason to change the image. Plus, I think the lighting is slightly better, making it better on a technical level. AvatarAang7 16:56, December 19, 2014 (UTC)
- Eum, no, I'm not at all making it sound like that. As for the factually incorrect statement of "let's not forget, he never wanted to turn against Asami", he literally said that there was no saving her and tried to kill her. He regrets that, yes, but that was a very conscious decision on his part, so at least keep the arguments true (in regards to what I said and the extent to which I said it) and factually correct (the Asami-comment). As such, the lighting comment is the only one that truly holds merit, so it's really a discussion of personality portrayal against better lighting. Lady Lostris / SOAP 17:03, December 19, 2014 (UTC)

I oppose the change per Lady Lostris' reasoning. In the end, his actions in the last season were the result of what he did as Equalist. DyingFlameTsui (wall • contribs) 19:04, December 19, 2014 (UTC)
The benefits of superior lighting, a better angle and his up to date appearance outweigh depicting a personality that he grew out of. For example, just because Zuko was, for the most part of the series, conflicted and at odds with himself.. that doesn't mean we're automatically obliged to use a photo of him depicting that side of him. --Mandon (wall • contribs) 19:10, December 19, 2014 (UTC)

Show how korra has changed as a person from s1-s4. She went through a journey mentally, physically, and spiritually. She had to go through pain, to be able to be more compassionate towards people.

I can probably sum it up a little. The people in the background are distracting, the open smile looks awkward and she's wearing formal attire rather than her actual clothes. I also oppose the proposal for those reasons. --Mandon (wall • contribs) 01:09, December 20, 2014 (UTC)
Do you have a big reason? The ones you say seem kind of a nit pick in my eyes. I could say for the current image that the trees are bother sum, picture is a little pixely, etc.- MrCookiezmilk 20:22 December 19, 2014(UTC)
It doesn't matter if my reasons are big or small or even nitpicky in your eyes. That's my reason, and that's my vote. The current image is fine. Before the finale I would have preferred a photo of her depicting her new hairstyle but now that it's clear there's no adequate image of her to replace it, I see no reason to change a high quality image for a low quality one. --Mandon (wall • contribs) 01:42, December 20, 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose. It's a shot of her as she appeared for only a few minutes at best over an entire series. The profile image should show the character as they're most often seen/reconized as. Soren7550 (wall • contribs) 03:39, December 20, 2014 (UTC)

Oppose — This is not how Korra is pictured most of the series. I would not be opposed to a picture from the end of book 4, but this one is not adequate. I agree with everything Water Spout said. Katherine Rebekah (wall • contribs)

Prince Wu. Ahh a character that nobody liked at the beginning, but over the course of season 4 he began to change. He used to be a rich, self entitles prince, but hes changed(even if its by a little bit). When Kuvira was on her way to destroy Republic City, Wu gave a plan to evacuate the citizens and even voluntered to help. He used the power of singing to get the Badgermoles to dig a way out of the city.At the finale moments he suggested that the eartch kingdom should have elected leaders like Republic city. Prince Wu has changed for the better, and I think his apperace should to. MrCookiezmilk (wall • contribs) 00:05, December 20, 2014 (UTC)

I think the first proposal should replace Korra's current profile image because it shows her in Earth Kingdom outfit, and it features her new hairstyle. There is decent lighting in this photo, and it shows Korra with Earth Kingdom terrain, smiling, just like the current image.

I believe this picture better portrays Baatar's facial features than the original profile picture that's in use. The current profile picture is just to blurry and you can't really see his face that well. This picture also shows the worry's in his face, which goes along with this season so far. --ELEMENTSEEKER 22:44, November 7, 2014 (UTC) Avatar Wiki:Profile image change/bottom

Having Opal in her current Air Acolyte attire as opposed to her Zaofu attire shows a bit more relevance to the path Opal is taking in the course of the story. Plus I think having Zaofu in the background reminds us of her roots despite her nomadic lifestyle.

I believe this photo is better, because it shows Varrick for who he truly is. He is a genius, but also a compassionate person at the very end. He finally reveals his feelings for Zhu Li and is a happier man for it.Its also a fantastic scene from the amazing Searies Finale of The Legend of Korra.

At First Zhu Li Moon was just an assistant, but as the series keept going she grew to be more then just Varricks assistant. She become a romantic interest. She became more assertive, but loving towards Varrick. This wedding picture show how much she really cares for Varrick. For better or worse.

This picture is of a more mature Jinora with her tattoos. She looks strong and determined to me, showing how much she has grown up over the last three years. It is also important to have a picture with her tattoos at the top of her page, so people can deduct that she is an airbending master. The image also has a good background and shows her in her Book 4 outfit. Katherine Rebekah (wall • contribs) Avatar Wiki:Profile image change/bottom
